Deck Primer

Stepping away from what's clearly good for now we're going to highlight one of paupers strongest points, it's almost completely unsolved and untested metagame.
This means that anyone coming into the format fresh can simply read through the HUGE card pool and they'll probably find something new, interesting and most of all, actually playable.

Here's mine, for whatever reason Heracross from Astral Radiance can just DO 120 damage off the cuff, which is almost unheard of in the currently agreed upon pool

Stepping away from what's clearly good for now we're going to highlight one of paupers strongest points, it's almost completely unsolved and untested metagame.
This means that anyone coming into the format fresh can simply read through the HUGE card pool and they'll probably find something new, interesting and most of all, actually playable.

Here's mine, for whatever reason Heracross from Astral Radiance can just DO 120 damage off the cuff, which is almost unheard of in the currently agreed upon pool of decks, from Castform to Control nothing has a flat number quite that high or accessible.
Slam it in a shell of the amazing grass tools like Aether Paradise, and some energy acceleration other decks aren't on yet like Voltorb and wishful baton and you've got a consistent, hard hitting, resource gathering monster.

Just to sign off it's important to note in a format like this just HOW GOOD Net Ball is, it gets you everything from your attackers to your supporting players to the energy you need to run, Heracross overall gets to flex tools no other deck can, and I for one am looking forward to see what else gets cooked up.
